By default, clicking the Application button does nothing. You can, however, use the RibbonControl.ApplicationButtonDropDownControl property to specify a control or menu to be displayed when clicking the button.

The following objects can be assigned to the RibbonControl.ApplicationButtonDropDownControl property.

  • An object that implements the DevExpress.XtraBars.PopupControl interface. Some examples are as follows.

  • BackstageViewControl - allows you to emulate the menu found in Microsoft Office 2010 applications. (The BackstageViewControl can be created via the Ribbon Control’s smart tag menu, or by dragging it to the form from the Toolbox.)

  • Any Control descendant.
